SyntheticPolygon posted:Clanne feels like one of the best characters in the earlygame tbh. Eh, I felt like he lacks in damage and you get Celine like 3 chapters later who feels just better than him, specially since she gets extra powerful vulnearies. Framme meanwhile is your only healer till you get Emblem Micaiah, and scrolls beong brave weapons means she can pack a punch with Alear's personal and a forged scroll. Frail as gently caress ofc. Also, people complaining about Tiki's paralogue being tedious af, but is it hard? I wanna turn my guys into dragons ASAP.

Clanne is weak but he's still targeting RES so he'll be putting out ranged damage and can secure kills or chunk people reliably.

I played it on hard, i would say it's moderately difficult just due to the sheer number of reinforcements, and there are a lot of enemies that have ranged attacks that ignore def/res which are quite dangerous.

You get a second mage really quickly after Celine and not long after that, you can second seal Anna into a mage that will almost immediately match Clanne's stats while having infinitely better growths.

It's got one real rude enemy type whose attack ignores defense and sets your movement to 0 for a turn, but if you've got a way to handle those you should be set.

Okay, I'll wait a few chapter then for more unit variety since I still have just 1 sword in Alear. Tae posted:You get a second mage really quickly after Celine and not long after that, you can second seal Anna into a mage that will almost immediately match Clanne's stats while having infinitely better growths. Yeah, it's mostly that, sure he's useful but I see him outclassed in no time. Also he barely doubles IMO, except knights but every mage can double knights. A bit of an aside, but are there any restrictions on engraving emblems in weapons? Because 100 bond fragments for a free boost to Mt, less Wt and such seems... really good. Is it one per weapon? Also what was the difference vetween Avoid and Dodge, the crit evasion?

avoid is hit evasion, dodge is crit evasion you can only do one of each engraving; if you already have the marth engraving on one weapon and try to add it to another, the first one will be erased

this game's hard is a fair bit harder than 3h hard. its not insanely hard but id compare it to like, FE7 hard. Not really in terms of game design (enemies are way stronger than individual enemies in FE7), just in terms of like, 'there are a few maps that are pretty tough and there's rarely a point where you can completely shut off.' compare that to 3H hard which was still basically a cake walk.

lih posted:are people saying this game's hard is harder than three houses hard? normal is certainly even easier than three houses normal Three Houses Hard didn't stop me up for a solid half of the game for any reason. My first hiccup was like... The Flayn/Seteth Paralogue because of the movement shenanigans. I came to this thread for help twice now a mere five chapters in. Admittedly I'm the same guy playing Shadow Dragon on normal, because 100% gently caress the nonsense bosses have for stats in Hard+. Maybe it's information overload (Break, Types, Engage, etc.) but I am finding Engage a lot harder to penetrate, it feels a lot more like Conquest than literally any other title in the series I've played (which means no JP only titles, I should fix that). Point is, if you think this is easier than 3H Hard then you played a completely different 3H from me.

Just finished Chapter 9 and I think my opinion has turned around on this game. It's pretty solid for an ensemble piece and I do like a lot of the Somniel activities that are available. The weapon break system I think is pretty cool and the Engage system adds some depth & complexity to character builds that i'm sure will enable people to just smash through the game like it's no problem.

To confirm something I heard elsewhere: Can you second seal to reset to level 1 in the same or a different advanced class? Further, does the game do internal level tracking such that doing this actually doesn't mess with your XP curve? Because if both of those are true, it's actually better to promote ASAP as long as you can spare the second seals later on.

I'm a huge idiot and got hit with a screenshot that was a super spoiler. Not too mad because lol this is Engage and it's not as bad as the time my friend casually said "so you know Edelgard is the Flame Emperor, yeah?" when I very much did not, but still, bleh. My own drat fault. Anyway, up through Chapter 6, having fun! I am playing on Normal for my first playthrough and it's pretty breezy, I look forward to future playthroughs on Hard while not using rings and all sorts of dumb poo poo. Hiya papaya made me upset.

I do not understand why FE is so inconsistent with whether thieves should have a promotion or not. Especially this game, where thieves have minimal utility.

Because if both of those are true, it's actually better to promote ASAP as long as you can spare the second seals later on. After some testing it appears that exp is entirely based on internal level and that is not affected by promotion. I repeat, promotion does not negatively impact experience gain at all, so unless you're concerned about hitting the cap too early and not having money for second seals, it is ALWAYS better to promote at level 10 because you get base stat boosts and promoted classes have better growths.

The difference between 3H Hard and Engage Hard is enormous. Engage Hard has teeth at times and will punish you for being sloppy. I can't think of a single time in 3H Hard I was even in danger let alone at risk of being punished for bad play with the exception of maybe the first post timeskip chapter.
